I have a fascination with VFDs/VVVFs/frequency inverters. They are the controllers that gives of a specific hum/whine from electric trains/cars and from other 3 phase electric motors.

That's really dope!! I've heard about this a few times. So you have a good video or site you could recommend that explains for layman why they do that?
